Business Ideas for Making Money While Studying

avatar

In some school around the world, I believe students are allowed to work and study but in Nigeria (and possibly in other countries as well) it is a different case and it very tough to have time for ourselves and not to talk about having time for a certain job.

My school resumption date is unknown and we are in an indefinite strike due to issues/disagreement between the Nigerian government and ASUU (Academic staff union of Universities).

Since we are in strike, I believe this is the best time to plan what I can do to generate money for myself outside blogging on HIVE/LEO or depending on my parents for stipends when I am in need.

So, some Ideas have been going through my mind and I would like to share one them with the leofinance community maybe I can get some ideas from members of the community as well. I would make a post of other ideas to come but today I would share a single Idea. Below are the idea I would love to share for today 🙂

HAVING A LAUDRY SERVICE FOR STUDENTS IN SCHOOL

This is one of the first ideas that came up in my mind and the reason why I thought of this is because I hate how students hate watching clothes. Many students are too lazy to especially me at times which is a problem that I have figured about students and they always say that: The Best Business Ideas Are Those That Solves A Problem.

So to solve the problem, I have thought of buying a less costly washing machine and a generator powerful enough to carry the washing machine. I believe I can get a watching machine for about $150 and a generator that is powerful enough for $200 or less. So I am looking forward saving about $350 or less for this.

On a second thoughts, I got a suggestion from my brother @daniky who said I won't have time for this if I eventually get myself a generator and washing machine because I am an engineering student. So he suggested to hire someone who would like to run the business and then get paid monthly by the person but the issue at hand is, would I give out the items I bought under the possessions of who I am to hire or let everything occur in my school apartment.


Now, I would like to know your thoughts on this idea, and what you think about hiring someone to run the laundry service for me?

Could be a good idea. The key role has the price that someone has to pay you for washing. If the laziness of the students outweighs the price, it could be successful 😊 tThats why these laundry shops are running automated and without staff. To cut costs.

Lol... Students laziness would definitely be high.

There are little to no laundry shops in my country or maybe probably the idea I am as I haven't been to a laundry shop before.

But I am this work out. I prefer doing it myself than hiring someone to help me with it.

Well back in school, I had people who ran laundry services. Both in nysc camp people were offering such services as well. So it looks good on paper.

If I am going to do any business it would be one that attaches little or no liability. For example, a laundry service where I contact those who want to get their laundry done with those who can do it, at an affordable rate. I get a commission and that's all. None liabilities. I don't have to pay the cost of managing a generator and washing machines. My customer list is infinite as long as I can connect them to their service provider.

Oh.. I understand, you charge the people who want to get their laundry done, then you connect to a laundry service. After that, you will remove your gains.. Hmm. That too is nice.

Washing machine is actually easy to manage. I have one at home as my family have been using it for about 5 years. The only thing needed is to be cleaning the filters and checking out the drain motor for any thing that can disturb it from preforming well. After that, there is nothing really needed.

For maintenance of the generator, that I don't know. Generators sometimes are costly to maintain.

In reply to your question: Am not so sure your school hostel permit accommodating someone who's not a student , except in a situation where you stay outside the campus. It's more fair if the hired person stays and work under your roof, that would settle the issue of trust and accountability, a newly established business should be well supervised. So I opine that the person you will hire stay or work in your apartment than using the equipment at his place.

Lol. I hate anything hostel. I rented an apartment outside school hostel. Yeah, you are right as I don't feel comfortable giving out an equipment I bought to someone to make use of it. The person might not take proper care of the item.

So, I might end up running the laundry service in my home or get a girlfriend who is interested in such business to run it for me in my house while she pays me some of what she earns. She would have my house keys to enter anytime she wants if I'm not around. Lol! I just thought of that.
